There's an awesome list of long reads compiled here: the finalists of the City and Regional Magazine awards for 2013.
Included are a few stories I enjoyed reading last year, including this story about John Wojnowski, who has stood outside the Vatican Embassy in Washington, DC almost every day for 14 years.
Also this two-part story at the Texas ( Read more... ) -

Of all the decisions I made today, I think deciding to stay up until 3 a.m. reading James Bond, anonymous fic memes, fandom_wank posts and chess openings was the worst.
I didn't even go on chat because I have spent like the last two hours in a hyped-up limbo of "I am about to go to bed."
WHY AM I LIKE THIS
Oh, and behold: the most explosive, ( Read more... ) -

the name thing
I don't know if I've ever ranted about this here or not, but here goes. I have a weird name, and one of the things you notice when you have a name like mine is that people actually correct you on the pronunciation of it.
It happens with both of my parents' surnames, too.
This is not to say that my name has a non-standard pronunciation. It's just ( Read more... ) -

I can't quite get my head around Yuletide Madness, and bless the Yuletide mods, but their instructions are a trifle confusing. If I see an prompt that I like, do I just fill it and post it to the collection? -

I was sitting at my desk just now listening to music through headphones when I heard something that sounded like someone using a power tool -- maybe an angle grinder or a power sander -- next door.

Against the Walls, Against Your Rules, Against Your Skin [The Awakening, Mature]
This is a fic for The Awakening, the Edwardian thriller movie from 2011. I was expecting a horror movie but was pleasantly surprised, it's more about war and loss imo. You don't need to have seen the movie to get the fic, but it'd definitely help. Not posting to any communities for now, but if you have an idea for one please suggest it!
